5 Perfect Wines for Valentine’s Day

All you need to create a special evening is a bottle of wine, red roses and a candlelit dinner

Whether you’re planning a romantic night in, hitting the town with the girls for Galentine’s, or even looking for a little quality alone time, here are five wines available at your local BC Liquor Store that will make perfect pairings for any kind of Valentine’s Day celebration.

1. Saintly Sauvignon Blanc

Whether it’s game night or a cute painting date, Saintly Sauvignon Blanc is a must-drink for a fun evening. It’s the perfect balance of dry, fresh and fruity. With notes of fresh citrus and pineapple, it pairs well with grilled chicken and fish dishes along with flavourful salads.

2. Inniskillin Pinot Noir

Inniskillin’s Pinot Noir is perfect for a classy candlelight dinner for two. This silky medium-bodied red has cherry and raspberry flavours that magically linger. It’s best matched with tuna steaks, roasted poultry and everyday casseroles.

3. Ruffino Prosecco Rosé

Even if romance is out of the question this February, you can still invite your partners-in-wine for a Galentine’s Day celebration. Ruffino Prosecco Rosé, a delicious bubbly filled with aromas of strawberry, rose petals, red berries and peach. It’s the perfect sip whether you are cooking together or ordering in.

4. Nk’Mip Rosé

Wine is also a popular gift idea—and what better way to show admiration for your sweetheart than by giving them a wine that matches their personality? Nk’ Mip Rosé is perfect for that person who is fun-loving, full of life and always down to try something new.

5. See Ya Later Ranch Meritage

If your better half is a super-confident showstopper who is always the centre of attention, gift a classy bottle of See Ya Later Ranch Meritage, a decadent red with a rich palate and flavours of cassis and mocha.
